Squid proxy server using WAN and 3G connection
by elcolo from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4SVDA)
Hello guys, I'm new over here.
I'm using Squid proxy server in a Raspberry with the idea of having a transparent proxy reachable both from LAN and Internet using a 3G connection as proxy gateway, something like this:
LAN users -> home router -> squid on Raspberry -> Internet over 3G connection
Internet users -> home router port forwarding from static public IP to Raspberry IP and port -> squid on Raspberry -> Internet over 3G
I was able to make the LAN solution work but I'm unable to do it through the public IP address.
In tcpdump I see packets coming in and out as well as in the squid access log, but proxy doesn't work from outside the network.
Any idea? Any test you want me to share? thanks in advance!
